Already 38 here now with literally 0 wind. The air is not moving at all... This is just Brutal, we simply are not used to that by default :lol:  Our government prohibited from midnight any entrance to the forest in the whole Košice region..so there gone the last chance of a at least cooler air... https://www.kosice.sk/clanok/v-kosiciach-a-okoli-je-zakaz-vstupu-do-lesa :lol:

Probably a good idea, considering the one thing countries all over the world have in common is that there's always some people who are stupid and do stuff like parking their (hot) car on a spot of grass, throwing away a cigarette and those kind of things :p 

 

I see the weather models are going for 40 as maximum in some spots today, with the current official record (so from an official weather station and not the thermometer someone has on his roof) being 40.3 degrees from 2007? Good luck...

I always used to think Europeans are lucky to get cool temperatures and lots of snow. Now I feel where I live is better.. 24-29 in Rainy season, 18-26 in winter, 27-34 in Summer with only few exceptions on some days like 1 or 2 per year when it's 35-36 and an Air Quality Index of 2-5 throughout the year. And of course the beaches, lakes ,rivers and lots of greenary .

What's the standard of air quality though? I mean, does every country use the same scale and such?

 

Here something like air quality is only mentioned on specifically bad days: either very hot or very cold (due to people using wood in their stoves and such). Otherwise we never hear anything about it, which is a good sign I suppose (definitely where I live air quality isn't much of an issue).

    • Just discovered this site which has replays of the event:   https://www.asiangameshub.com/events/harbin-2025  
    • Mixed bag - sometimes it means they're concentrating on individual medals.
    • 55th place for  Duda in today's U23 sprint qualifying. That's 11 points for Brazil in the ranking, alright, but more importantly for us: 11 points that @brunamouracan definitely make up in Trondheim.   Make up, you say? Yeah, here is the double situation: we want Brazil to get in the top-30 and have a second ticket, obviously, since it increases everyone's chance, including Bruna's. However, if Brazil has two tickets, the federation has decided that the first one will go to whoever gets the most points for the nations ranking. Duda is the only junior/U23 athlete who is in the fight for the Olympics, and therefore she obviously has a massive advantage simply because of her age - she can start in the U23 world championships, after all. She'll have the sprint, interval and mass start races to score points, plus the mixed relay.   That is quite a big points haul that is hard to overtake, considering she will of course also compete in Trondheim. The good thing about Trondheim is that, at least according to the federation's own rules, Duda is out of the team sprint, and so Bruna can make up quite a bit of points there. Finish way ahead of her in the sprint and the 10k as well, and the Schilpario points can be made up.   In other words, mixed feelings: we need Duda to do well in Schilpario, because of Brazil getting in the top-30, but we also need her not to do that well, or else a potential second ticket will simply be hers by virtue of being young enough to compete in the U23 world championships.   By the way, if Brazil ends up with 1 ticket, it will depend entirely on their internal rankings, which Bruna is leading with a large margin at the moment.
    • It's OCA, why we should be surprised
    • Besides the incredible sport result by finishing 4th at the World Championship,  national team managed to do the unthinkable: to gather portuguese people's attention to a sport other than football, so much that the semi final against Denmark was the most viewed tv show of the day in Portugal.   In fact, to be able to make the Prime Minister and the President of the country to go to the bronze medal match of a sport that is not football truly reveals how this guys made this event popular in our country.   Yesterday they landed back in  and this was the reception:             Yes of course this looks like a joke next to Croatia celebrations, but you need to understand this is a 100% football-only country so having someone besides the players families waiting for them in the airport is already big enough for , so this one was really nice      
    • Isn't Argentina literally always there?     I'm only missing Belgium this time  
    • I had totally missed it, but Tereza Nova suffered a bad crash in training for the Garmisch downhill a bit over a week ago, and was kept in a coma. Can't find anything more recent, not sure that's a good sign or not...
    • Start lists for the mixed team are out. Argentina and Ukraine will compete today, a nice surprise, at last for me.   Here the bracket:   vs vs vs   vs vs vs
    • Yeah that's even worse. The sports should be confirmed at least like 6-7 years before the Olympics and the actual program really should be confirmed before the preceding Olympics. I know they don't, but they really should.
